📚✨ Delighted to visit Maynooth University’s Marketing Management students as part of their collaboration with GOAL.

As part of the Letters to the Future campaign, students are imagining messages to inspire future generations and developing creative marketing plans to engage new audiences.

From our project introduction on 2–3 March to a great follow‑up Q&A on 13–14 April, it’s been a real pleasure engaging with such thoughtful and passionate students. Best of luck with your assignments and studies – we can’t wait to see where your ideas lead! 🌍💬
